Thanks for the insight. What about the Logger32 Serial port settings - baud rate /parity/stop bits/data bits?

Hi Johan, I had this problem for a time with my 8600 but never with my old 6600. The latest firmware seems to have largely cured the issue, but here's how to make sure you don't have any issues:
Always start Smartsdr and Smartcat (this also applies to Thetis and before all that PowerSDR) before starting Logger32 or any other logging software for that matter (N1MM, DXlog etc) and let the logging software find Smartsdr. Polling rate matters, I have found that I can can use a polling rate as low as 50ms provided that after launching Logger32 I wait a few minutes for everything settle down and confirm that Logger32 is tracking Smartsdr by scrolling the waterfall. The delay seems to be the key.
Currently I am using a polling rate of 150ms and provided I start Smartsdr and then Logger32 and confirm that Logger32 is tracking Smartsdr as described above, I am good to go ie no settling down period is necessary.
